Connecting children to nature

"the teachers are wonderful at falling into deep exploration with the children noticing and wondering things about a nearby lady bug, soft moss discovery, or realizing the need to follow the children’s lead in play."
About

School Philosophy

Stepping into nature and witnessing the fall of a leaf, the sound of raindrops, or the call of a hawk can all spark a day’s investigation. At Oakland Saplings, we are inspired to follow the lead of children and their natural curiosity for the world around them. We believe in giving children space to play, explore, and come together in collaboration. By nature we are all scientists, researchers, mathematicians, and philosophers. It is our intention to uncover these multifaceted abilities and learn alongside children as we dive deep into our connection with nature.
